Oh! Thx. XP Pro.

I think the mis-centering is an artifact caused by a Firefox plug-in I'm using called "NoSquint" which allows the sizes of text and graphics to be adjusted independently. It remembers the settings for each url, but I have the text set a little larger by default.

Hmmm.....that sounds rather interesting. I'm gonna go take a lookee-loo.
 
I finally managed to win this bitch. Once you figure out the right formula, it's only a matter of time before things fall your way.

I'm curious what your formula is because I've tried a couple variants and I've only beaten it once and that one time I didn't even notice how close I was. I was thinking. "SHIT SHIT SHIT too many fucking 64s and no place to. . .2048?!" SCORE!

Yep, that's the secret alright.

I've found I can pretty easily get to 1024 by going right-and-down, my gf gets there going left-and-down. Maybe its the way the brain works.

I have noticed there seems to be a lesser margin of error once you get a 1024 tile (1 less available space maybe?) I seem to routinely vetty things up once I get to that level.
 
I either go up and left and build a kinda pyramid then go Right and Up and a lot of stuff all lines up or I go back and forth and up but inevitably something Vettes it up for me around that stage.

Interesting idiom.

I just work bottom to top without varying. Eventually you can merge something into that top row and clear a little space. But you need a little luck to carry it all the way to the 2048. I typically get gridlocked, and after that happens, it's only a matter of time till you run out of room.

And that's the same thing that happened when I won. I didn't think I was very close, but 4 or 5 quick connections and suddenly I had two 1024s in the top row.
 
i've beat it twice now. there is a pattern. 4096 is next. games becoming longer. the fucker needs to quit texting./ your mama's highest score was a few decades ago.
 
Goddamnit. Why do you have to be so good?

If it makes ya feel any better, and I'm sure it will, I haven't gotten beyond 1024 since my One Brief Shining Moment. :mad:

Actually yes that does make me feel much much better. I mean I still have to go around singing about how RDS is cooler than me but that's nothing new.
